A segment on The Colbert Report made me laugh out loud last night. Colbert “wagged his finger” at the Order of St Nick greeting card company, which offers a line of cards for “atheist, agnostic, skeptic, scientific, humanist, and free-thinking” people who celebrate Christmas.
Inside: evolve your beliefs
The company believes it fills a niche, noting that “[n]early 15% of Americans identify themselves as ‘non-religious,’ [while] … surveys show that 95% of Americans celebrate Christmas.”
They offer eight designs at http://www.atheistholidaycards.com/ or http://www.cafepress.com/orderofstnick/6179512.
Inside: the evolution of tradition
Here’s a link to The Colbert Report episode (note: the segment begins at 14 minutes in):
